Yesterday I showed the historical trend for natural gas prices nationally. Today I'll continue the fascinating discussion of natural gas prices by looking at the price for each state. I once again got the information from the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
For comparison also see my previous article on average electricity cost by state.
Below are the prices for each state in dollars per 1000 cubic feet of natural gas. These are average residential rates per state.
